Ga: Bhí an mhaidin te samhraidh fós ag bladhmanna nuair a thosaigh an scéal.
En: The summer morning was still blazing when the story began.

Ga: Bhí an fhoirgneamh ard-oifige gnóthach agus nua-aimseartha, le ballaí gloine agus halla iontach galánta.
En: The tall office building was bustling and modern, with glass walls and an elegantly grand lobby.

Ga: Sheas an triúr - Siobhán, Eoin, agus Niamh - os comhair an ardaitheora beag, beagán cúng le dromchlaí scátháin agus tor beag ón gcóras aerála.
En: The trio—Siobhán, Eoin, and Niamh—stood in front of the small, somewhat cramped elevator with mirrored surfaces and a slight hum from the ventilation system.

Ga: Bhí Siobhán an-bhuartha.
En: Siobhán was very anxious.

Ga: Bhí eagla uirthi roimh ardaitheoirí.
En: She was afraid of elevators.

Ga: Bhí Eoin réchúiseach agus eolach ar gach rud teicneolaíochta.
En: Eoin was easygoing and knowledgeable about all things technological.

Ga: Bhí rún aige dul i bhfeidhm ar Shíobhán a raibh easpa muiníne aici.
En: He aimed to impress Siobhán, who lacked confidence.

Ga: Ba chainteoir soghonta í Niamh, an t-intern nua, gan scagaire ar bith.
En: Niamh, the new intern, was a candid talker, without any filter.

Ga: Tháinig dhaoine timpeall orthu agus chuaigh na doirse ar an ardaitheoir i leataobh.
En: People gathered around them as the elevator doors slid open.

Ga: Thóg siad anáil dhomhain agus shiúil siad isteach.
En: They took a deep breath and walked in.

Ga: Dhún siad na doirse agus brúigh Siobhán an cnaipe don 25ú hurlár.
En: The doors closed, and Siobhán pressed the button for the 25th floor.

Ga: Ar an gceathrú hurlár, stop an t-ardaitheoir go tobann.
En: On the fourth floor, the elevator stopped suddenly.

Ga: Bhí siad i bhfostú idir urláir.
En: They were stuck between floors.

Ga: Thosaigh Siobhán ag análú go tapaidh.
En: Siobhán began to breathe rapidly.

Ga: "Oh diaga!
En: "Oh my god!"

Ga: " ar sí go ciúin.
En: she said quietly.

Ga: Chuir Eoin a lámh ar a gualainn.
En: Eoin placed his hand on her shoulder.

Ga: "Tá mé anseo, Siobhán.
En: "I'm here, Siobhán.

Ga: Déanfaidh mé iarracht é seo a shocrú.
En: I will try to fix this."

Ga: " Thosaigh sé ag oscailt an phainéil teicniúil.
En: He started opening the technical panel.

Ga: Ach ghníomhaigh Niamh go hairíonna.
En: But Niamh acted impulsively.

Ga: Thosaigh sí ag brú na gcnaipí go léir ó néaróga.
En: She began pressing all the buttons out of nerves.

Ga: "Stop, Niamh!
En: "Stop, Niamh!"

Ga: " scairt Eoin.
En: Eoin shouted.

Ga: "Tá tú ag meascadh suas rudaí anseo.
En: "You're mixing things up here."

Ga: "Chuaigh Siobhán isteach sa choil ar an urlár.
En: Siobhán sank to the floor in the corner.

Ga: "Tá eagla orm," ar sí de ghlór íseal.
En: "I'm scared," she said in a low voice.

Ga: Breathnaigh Niamh uirthi agus stad.
En: Niamh looked at her and stopped.

Ga: "Tá brón orm, tá mé ag cur isteach.
En: "I'm sorry, I'm being a nuisance."

Ga: "Thug Eoin a fhón amach agus chuir glaoch ar na seirbhísí éigeandála.
En: Eoin took out his phone and called emergency services.

Ga: "Ní mór dúinn fanacht.
En: "We need to wait.

Ga: Ach tabharfaidh mé iarracht freisin.
En: But I'll try as well."

Ga: " Thosaigh sé ag athcheangal na cáblaí.
En: He began reconnecting the cables.

Ga: D'fhoghlaim Niamh faoina scáthán smaointe agus thosaigh sí ag análú go domhain le Siobhán.
En: Niamh delved into her thoughts and started breathing deeply with Siobhán.

Ga: "Tá muid anseo, labhair linn.
En: "We’re here, talk to us."

Ga: " Thug sin faoiseamh beag do Shíobhán.
En: This gave Siobhán some relief.

Ga: Tar éis cúpla nóiméad, bhí Eoin in ann an córas a athshocrú.
En: After a few minutes, Eoin managed to reset the system.

Ga: Mhothaigh siad an t-ardaitheoir ag bogadh arís.
En: They felt the elevator moving again.

Ga: "Tá sé ag obair!
En: "It's working!"

Ga: " scairt Eoin go sásta.
En: Eoin exclaimed happily.

Ga: Shroich siad an 25ú hurlár díreach in am don chruinniú.
En: They reached the 25th floor just in time for the meeting.

Ga: Bhí siad beagán corraitheach ach sásta.
En: They were a bit shaken but content.

Ga: Fuair Siobhán a misneach, d'fhoghlaim Eoin gur fiú iarracht a dhéanamh, agus mhothaigh Niamh níos muiníneach ina post nua.
En: Siobhán found her courage, Eoin learned that it was worth making an effort, and Niamh felt more confident in her new role.

Ga: Rinne siad é.
En: They made it.

Ga: Mens nach raibh an mhaidin foirfe, d'fhoghlaim siad an luach atá i muinín a bheith agat as a chéile.
En: Even though the morning wasn't perfect, they learned the value of having trust in each other.

Ga: Bhain siad céim ón ardaitheoir, níos láidre agus níos muiníneach.
En: They stepped out of the elevator, stronger and more confident.
